Jim Dondero co-founded alternative investing firm Highland Capital Management in 1993 and continues to serve as the President of the company. Under his leadership, the company has over $15 billion in alternative assets under management. He’s made a number of daring calls during his time with Highland Capital Management, including investing in American Airlines when everyone else was running away from its stock and buying Argentina’s currency when the country was seemingly mired in unsolvable problems.

While one would think that someone willing to take these types of bold moves would be outspoken and brash, Jim Dondero is actually introverted and prone to more thinking than talking. This has served him well in his career as his thinking has led to great gains for Highland Capital Management and its clients.The initial alternative investment class that Jim Dondero focused on when founding Highland Capital Management was on nonbank collateralized loan obligations. He was a pioneer in this asset class and success in this led to the company to soon start investing in other alternative investments. They launched their first mutual fund in 2000 and have continued to introduce new funds ever since.

Jim Dondero has been in the financial industry for over 30 years. After graduating from the University of Virginia with top honors he started his professional career at Morgan Guaranty. Before founding Highland Capital Management he also worked for American Express as a Portfolio Manager and Corporate Bond Analyst, and at Protective Life as its Chief Investment Officer.Jim Dondero strongly believes in giving back to the community.

He supports a number of nonprofits including those that are involved in education, public policy, and veteran’s affairs. Since 2005, Highland Capital Mangement has donated more than $10 million to various charities around the world. Among the many nonprofits he has supported are the Wolf Museum of Exploration + Innovation, the Dallas Zoo, the Center for Brain Health, and the George W. Bush Presidential Library.

Now, though, that there is the Frontera Fund, people don’t have to worry about it. The fund was created with each of these people in mind and it was set up so that they would be able to have all the money that they needed to fight the problems that come from human rights violations.

The fund was set up by two men who had their rights violated and it was something that was very close to their heart because of this. It was also something that they wanted to do so that they could help other people out with their problems.

The sheriff’s office had to pay them over three million dollars for the damages that they caused to their lives and the men then used this to make sure that they were going to be able to start the fund. It helped them to realize that they could do so much more with the things that they had.

Once the Frontera Fund started to help people, Michael Lacey and Jim Larkin knew that it was the right decision. They also knew that they could help more people than they had in the past if they did everything that they could to provide for the people. Since Larkin and Lacey knew what they had to do, they continued to grow the Frontera Fund so that they could help even more people with the problems that they had in their own lives and with violations of human rights.

Health conditions aren’t caught early enough because people don’t experience symptoms until the health condition progresses. By the time symptoms show, the health of an individual is not that great and the health condition can be harder to treat once that condition has progressed. Life Line Screening is a non-profit company that offers health screenings at an affordable price.Preventive health screenings are great at detecting risk factors for health conditions and health conditions that haven’t caused any symptoms thus far. They work with your physicians because most physicians don’t order preventive tests unless symptoms have already begun. Once the results are in, your physician can review the results and order the necessary tests that your insurance will cover to investigate further.

Life Line Screenings can conduct three different test. Each test is reliable, accurate, and results are given within minutes of the test being performed. An EKG is good at detecting irregular heart beats. People typically don’t know that their heart rate is irregular so this test is good in detecting that. An ultrasound is another technique used to look at organs, tissues, and vessels within the body. This gives the physician a clear image so that they can detect abnormalities inside the body.

Last is the finger-stick blood test. This is great at looking at a complete lipid panel, glucose, and C-reactive proteins. All three of these techniques are a great preventive tool so individuals can stay on top of their health.Insurance companies may even reimburse you for the health screening. It just all depends on what type of coverage you have. In order to reimburse, you must submit a receipt and the test results. Once coverage has been reviewed, then you will find out whether you can be reimbursed for the cost of the preventive health screening.

Entrepreneur Doe Deere was born and raised in Russia. As a child, she would play in her grandmother’s flower garden for hours on end. Her love of flowers and gardens accented with birds, butterflies, and bees carries through to her designs. At age 17 she moved to New York City where she fulfilled a desire to become a musician. Doe lived in NYC from 1998 to 2012 primarily in Brooklyn where she continued to play in her band. In fact, Doe met her husband in the band. With him, she learned how to collaborate on projects since both were songwriters.

As a child, Doe simply loved different colors, and she would wear clothes and accessories with many different bright colors. This love of color stayed with her until adulthood and became a huge part of her cosmetics line. Back in 2004, Doe registered a new eBay store called “limecrime” since it invoked her favorite color — bright green. This was her DIY colorful fashion line. She modeled everything herself, and she encouraged others to have fun with colors. The bright and colorful makeup brand followed naturally, so Lime Crime was launched in 2008. Doe was a bit surprised to see her brand take off like it did. Bright colors were practically nonexistent in makeup at the time, so Doe filled the void. She became a huge success in the beauty industry by following her heart.

As the founder and CEO of Lime Crime Cosmetics, Doe proves that cosmetics can be a form of self-expression instead of just a way to conceal imperfections. With that in mind, Doe developed her line of colorful and cruelty-free cosmetics. These animal-friendly cosmetics are intensely pigmented and vibrant. She has developed eye shadows, nail polishes, and lipsticks that are bold and bright. Doe strongly supports other businesses owned by women. She enjoys mentoring other female entrepreneurs. Often she speaks at public venues such as the PHAMExpo (The Professional Hair and Makeup Exposition).

If you were to pass Doe Deere in the street you might recognize her from her brilliantly colored long flowing hair. It could be purple, pink, blue, green, or some other lovely color from the rainbow. She is living proof that folks from all different walks of life can make their dreams become a reality. Her advice is to follow your heart to unveil that unique quality that will lead you to success.
